"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

No shit. LLMs are the anti-thesis of education. The basis of which is hands on practice. Using a glorified autocomplete-my-assignments should be barred from education without exception.
This is the tip of the iceberg. The world is facing a critical collapse of profession. We're nearing a point that was foretold ins sci-fi where humans no longer understand how the machine works.Just that they can use it and it works.
Except sci-fi was too optimistic. Science fiction has actual AGI. We have glorified autocomplete. A non-intelligence.
it's the equivalent of trying become a marathon running while you sit on your ass on the couch and and flying FPV drone for your 'training' and saying it's the same thing.
This is worse than that too, we're already at a point where most people don't understand how the machine works... But overuse of AI is going to make it so that most people don't know how to do simple tasks that everybody used to know. They'll be non-functional without an internet connection.
